Wedding paella catering for your wedding in Tower Hill
Paella has a natural rhythm: the rice needs about 20 minutes and is best served immediately. We time it around your speeches and photos. Whether it is food for evening guests and rustic barn weddings, we can cook evening paella, table tapas and a paella wedding breakfast.
For a wedding in Tower Hill, think about how guests travel between ceremony and reception. Paella can be cooking while they’re on the move, ready to serve on arrival. Tapas, canapés, desserts, sangria and staff can all be added, so the whole menu comes from one caterer.

Why live cooking beats a buffet
A hog roast is popular at weddings, but harder for vegetarian, vegan and halal guests. Paella covers them with separate pans. If you have a budget in mind, tell us, and we will suggest a menu to match. Even a simple menu can be a feast.

Catering for every guest
Nearly every event has some special diets. To plan for them:
- Decide whether guests queue at the pans or are served at the tables
- Connect us with your coordinator
- Give us separate day and evening numbers
- Tell us about suppliers who need feeding
We generally set up where guests can watch, and it makes a great photo.
Add sangria, or bar staff to serve your own drinks.
Planning the cooking area
Before the day, we will agree where we cook. It needs to meet a few simple requirements:
- The venue’s permission for live cooking
- Parking close enough to carry equipment
- Outdoor space or a ventilated gazebo
Tower Hill is in London, within the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and parking can be tight: tell us about parking bays, permits or a driveway.
Not sure about your space? Send us a photo and we will tell you honestly before you book.

Your questions about wedding paella catering in Tower Hill
Can you cook in William Curtis Ecological Park?
Only with permission from the park’s owner, generally the council. Ask them first, and we will send any information they need.
What about parking in Tower Hill?
London parking needs planning: let us know about permits or off-street space. We will work around it.
Do you do canapés and evening food too?
We can. Canapé tapas, table tapas, a paella wedding breakfast, evening food and desserts, or any part of that.
Should we have more than one paella?
Most events have two or three: a meat or mixed paella, a seafood paella and a vegetable or vegan one. We will suggest a split based on your guests.
How much space do you need?
Not a lot: a level spot clear of fences, hedges and branches, with room for a serving table. If in doubt, send a picture.
Can you do gluten-free paella?
We can cook a gluten-free paella in its own pan. Let us know about coeliac guests in advance so we can plan it carefully.
Can you cater for children?
Of course. A simple chicken paella is normally popular with children. Tell us how many are coming.
Do you cook inside?
Indoors only where ventilation and the venue allow it. Most events have us cooking outside or in a doorway or courtyard.
